Guest heinera Posted March 10, 2002 Share Posted March 10, 2002 Has anyone swapped to a different steering column in their 70-78z? Has anyone swapped the blinker, headlight, or other switches to anything other than the z switches. The reason I ask is that I am in the middle of rewiring with a painless 18 circuit harness and from what others have posted the switching on the z's is weird. Perhaps it would be easier just to change to other switches, perhaps GM? Thanks, Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bang847 Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 I think Owen did a swap from a stanza? not sure... but he also did a painless kit too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeromio Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Here's the link to Owen's write up: http://www.v8zcar.com/s30z/turnsigassy.htm Apparently 87 Maxima or Stanza switchgear will bolt up to the Z column. Problem I'm having is locating the 87 Maxima or Stanza parts.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 Try a GM column. one with Tilt / telescope / cruise control would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKMGK Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 Consider a Vega tilt column too. Not sure it has switches on the column for wipers and headlights but it's a small light unit that might work well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
